n8n Docs

This repository hosts the documentation for n8n, an extendable workflow automation tool which enables you to connect anything to everything. The documentation is live at docs.n8n.io.

Previewing and building the documentation locally

Prerequisites

  • Python 3.8 or above
  • Pip
  • n8n recommends using a virtual environment when working with Python, such as venv.
  • Follow the recommended configuration and auto-complete guidance for the theme. This will help when working with the mkdocs.yml file.
  • The repo includes a .editorconfig file. Make sure your local editor settings do not override these settings. In particular:
    • Don't allow your editor to replace tabs with spaces. This can affect our code samples (which must retain tabs for people building nodes).
    • One tab must be equivalent to four spaces.

Steps

For members of the n8n GitHub organization:

  1. Set up an SSH token and add it to your GitHub account. Refer to GitHub | About SSH for guidance.

  2. Then run these commands:

    git clone --recurse-submodules [email protected]:n8n-io/n8n-docs.git
    cd n8n-docs
    # Set up virtual environment if using one (steps depend on your system)
    # Install dependencies
    pip install -r requirements.txt
    pip install _submodules/insiders

For external contributors:

Rely on the preview builds on pull requests, or use the free version of Material for MkDocs (most things are the same, some formatting may be missing)

Fork the repository, then:

git clone https://github.com/<your-username>/n8n-docs.git
cd n8n-docs
pip install -r requirements.txt
pip install mkdocs-material

To serve a local preview:

mkdocs serve
